To best of my understanding, the history of queries are not stored anywhere, so this is impossible, at least not via using SQL directly.

In principle, you can create some service which re-directs requests to the database and stores statistics or history of the SQL queries in a separate database. In this way, such statistics or history of queries could be preserved, but only for the requests performed via this service. For example, it can be done if all the queries to be taken into account are done via a Web application or a Web service.

As SA said "ABOVE" thing is not possible at least via using SQL directly.
all Queries history stored in .LDF file(Log data file) but we can not read it directly.

You need to customize your code accordingly and set select counter in database. when any column hit increase that counter before fetching column value.

AFAIK you can't. I think you want show the results like Popular, Most rated, Most viewed, etc., For that you need to use something like algorithms. So you need to store additional values(like rating, counts, views) in your table every time.

Look at these CP articles
